- 0:12Speaker 2: podcast around this time earlier on a Thursday, you know
- 0:16Speaker 2: what I'm talking about. But you know, people consume this
- 0:18Speaker 2: podcast at later times, later days, sometimes even months down
- 0:22Speaker 2: the road. So yeah, it's gloomy outside today, looks like
- 0:26Speaker 2: real like shit, but it's okay. It's not that cold outside.

- 0:33Speaker 2: a couple of good days this week. But vacation's coming
- 0:36Speaker 2: up next week. Looking forward to it. Been talking a
- 0:38Speaker 2: lot about it, because yeah, it's vacation, you know. And
- 0:41Speaker 2: it's not just a vacation. It's I mean, it's a vacation,
- 0:45Speaker 2: but it's a go away vacation, you know. I Mean,
- 0:48Speaker 2: most times we don't go anywhere. I do a lot
- 0:50Speaker 2: of staycations, but this time we are going somewhere.
- 0:53Speaker 1: We're going to Aruba.
- 0:54Speaker 2: So we got the itinerary from the airbnb yesterday. I
- 0:58Speaker 2: was so excited that when I wrote back to the person,
- 1:02Speaker 2: I had a little bit of a typo there which
- 1:05Speaker 2: I haven't in front of me here, I'll read it
- 1:06Speaker 2: to you so I don't have to add libit.
- 1:08Speaker 1: So they sent details.
- 1:10Speaker 2: Now now mind you you know this was a highly
- 1:13Speaker 2: rated airbnb I did, we did some research on it
- 1:15Speaker 2: before just booking it. But still, you know, we paid
- 1:18Speaker 2: a lot of money, thousands of dollars months ago. I
- 1:21Speaker 2: think we booked it in September, and all they say
- 1:24Speaker 2: is thank you, You're all set. They take the money
- 1:26Speaker 2: and then they say, okay, we'll reach out to you
- 1:30Speaker 2: the week before. But I started having thoughts, you know,
- 1:33Speaker 2: in January, like what if it's a scam, what if
- 1:37Speaker 2: I don't like get the message, you know. But we did,
- 1:41Speaker 2: of course, and they were very nice. They give all
- 1:43Speaker 2: the details and they're awaiting our arrival there. So I
- 1:47Speaker 2: responded back right away. When the message came in, I said, hey, blank,
- 1:51Speaker 2: we are so sorry, excited, thank you, And I didn't
- 1:55Speaker 2: even notice it. I sent it, and then right away
- 1:57Speaker 2: my wife and my friend who are also on the
- 2:00Speaker 2: aaronba Me immediately messages me in that like you're sorry,
- 2:04Speaker 2: You're sorry, You're going to a rub Oh my, oh
- 2:06Speaker 2: my god, what's wrong with me? So I had to
- 2:08Speaker 2: write back to them and say I'm not sorry. We're
- 2:12Speaker 2: actually very excited to come. We're very, very, very excited.
- 2:14Speaker 2: So that's good.
- 2:16Speaker 1: Anyway we can get some talkbacks in here from you guys.
- 2:18Speaker 3: Hey, justin I just had a question. If you weren't
- 2:22Speaker 3: in radio or you lost your job, let's say next week,
- 2:27Speaker 3: what career would you look into. Do you think you
- 2:29Speaker 3: would stay in the media space or would you go
- 2:33Speaker 3: into the recovery part of your life? Yeah, just kind
- 2:38Speaker 3: of curious. I think every once in a while we
- 2:42Speaker 3: all consider a career change. So I was just wondering
- 2:43Speaker 3: what your thoughts were.
- 2:45Speaker 2: You know, I think about this all the time all
- 2:48Speaker 2: the time because I work in a business that it's unpredictable.
- 2:50Speaker 2: You don't know what's going to happen. You just got
- 2:52Speaker 2: to keep showing up and working hard and hope that
- 2:55Speaker 2: you know your time doesn't come. But it is media,
- 2:57Speaker 2: and that's not not just radio, that's any media, right,
- 3:00Speaker 2: that's TV radio. I mean, people get let go all
- 3:04Speaker 2: the time. So I think about that, and yeah, I'm
- 3:09Speaker 2: not sure. Possibly recovery, that's definitely a road I could
- 3:13Speaker 2: go down. Also, maybe fitness too, Yeah, maybe be a
- 3:17Speaker 2: trainer or maybe something else in media. The thing is
- 3:23Speaker 2: that I have a lot of experience now in media.
- 3:25Speaker 2: I've worked here for seventeen years, in radio, in producing,
- 3:30Speaker 2: in you know, being on the radio.
- 3:32Speaker 1: So I don't I don't really know.
- 3:34Speaker 2: I try not to stress myself out and think, like
- 3:37Speaker 2: what if something happens, but it's definitely a reality. I mean,
- 3:40Speaker 2: look at Winnie, you know, when he was here for
- 3:42Speaker 2: several years and then boom gone. You know, it sucks.
- 3:46Speaker 2: It really does suck. So I just have faith that
- 3:49Speaker 2: it'll be okay.
- 3:50Speaker 1: You know, I don't know if I was saying this
- 3:53Speaker 1: to somebody on the pot.
- 3:54Speaker 2: I was off the air, off the podcast. I was
- 3:57Speaker 2: talking to Billy, and I forget it. I wasn't talking
- 4:02Speaker 2: about losing my job. I was just talking about about
- 4:05Speaker 2: life in general. And you know, since I've been in recovery,
- 4:11Speaker 2: things have just worked out because this is what I believe.
- 4:15Speaker 2: I continue to do the right thing as best as
- 4:18Speaker 2: I can, and that means, you know, not hurting anybody,
- 4:22Speaker 2: treating people good, just living a godly life, I guess
- 4:27Speaker 2: is a good way to describe it, right, because we
- 4:30Speaker 2: know what's right and what's wrong. You know, That's what
- 4:32Speaker 2: I tell my son all the time.
- 4:33Speaker 1: You know, he's learning.
- 4:35Speaker 2: You know, he's a kid, so he doesn't know, but
- 4:37Speaker 2: you know he is learning what's right and what's wrong.
- 4:39Speaker 2: You know, Like when you do something one time, you
- 4:43Speaker 2: get a pass because maybe if you did not know
- 4:46Speaker 2: what it was. But if you do it again and again,
- 4:48Speaker 2: then it becomes a problem and that's when consequences come in,
- 4:51Speaker 2: punishment comes. But if it's the first time, that's okay.
- 4:54Speaker 2: You know, you learn. So you know, life is about
- 4:58Speaker 2: doing the right thing. And I feel like since I've
- 5:00Speaker 2: gotten clean, I've done that consistently, and my life has
- 5:03Speaker 2: been okay. Like I've never found myself in a hole
- 5:07Speaker 2: big enough that I couldn't get out of. And you know,
- 5:10Speaker 2: it doesn't mean it's all sunshine and rainbows and that
- 5:12Speaker 2: every day is great. That's listen, it's life. There's peaks
- 5:14Speaker 2: and valleys, you know, in family, in my life and
- 5:18Speaker 2: career physically, there's always things going on. But overall I've
- 5:22Speaker 2: been okay. I've always had a job, even when it
- 5:25Speaker 2: wasn't making a lot of money, I was always able
- 5:28Speaker 2: to make it through. You know, So if I lose
- 5:31Speaker 2: my job, then I'll find something else to do and
- 5:34Speaker 2: I'll be okay. The world's not gonna end. I'm not
- 5:37Speaker 2: going to pick up, I'm not gonna get high, I'm
- 5:38Speaker 2: not gonna drink, I'm not gonna do anything crazy. I'm
- 5:41Speaker 2: not going to commit a crime. I'm gonna deal with it,
- 5:44Speaker 2: and I'll be very sad. Let's be honest. You know
- 5:46Speaker 2: I said that to Winning, you know, when she left.
- 5:48Speaker 2: I said, I can't imagine what you're feeling right now,
- 5:50Speaker 2: because I'd be feeling emotional too. I'd be upset too.
- 5:53Speaker 2: It sucks, So I try not to think of it
- 5:57Speaker 2: in a negative way. I just just know and I
- 6:00Speaker 2: have faith that it'll be okay, I guess, is what
- 6:02Speaker 2: I have to say. So, uh, speaking of Winn, a
- 6:04Speaker 2: lot of people hitting me up about her podcast in
- 6:07Speaker 2: getting my thoughts on it. Yeah, I mean, listen, I'm
- 6:11Speaker 2: so far removed from that, but if you are, and
- 6:14Speaker 2: I know a lot of people are interested in the
- 6:16Speaker 2: whole story of all that stuff, definitely go listen to
- 6:19Speaker 2: it because you know she says it all which you
- 6:23Speaker 2: know she's telling the truth. I mean, like you know,
- 6:28Speaker 2: she's just telling it how it is. She's not tied
- 6:30Speaker 2: to here anymore, she's not tied to anybody, so you know,
- 6:34Speaker 2: she can say whatever she wants. So if you're interested,
- 6:36Speaker 2: definitely go check it out. I mean, yeah, it's a
- 6:39Speaker 2: crazy place we work, you know, and I feel like
- 6:42Speaker 2: we alluded to it a lot, you know, especially in
- 6:44Speaker 2: this podcast, Like we didn't come out and say exactly things,
- 6:48Speaker 2: but we alluded to there were issues, I mean, and
- 6:51Speaker 2: that was the biggest thing I always used to say
- 6:53Speaker 2: when people were like, what happened? What happened with Matt
- 6:57Speaker 2: and Bill? You know, and it's like, just put two
- 7:01Speaker 2: and two together. I know, we don't have to explain
- 7:03Speaker 2: it all for you. There were issues going on. You know,
- 7:06Speaker 2: it's a very complex situation. But I'm more moved from
- 7:10Speaker 2: that stuff. Man, I can't be caught up in all
- 7:12Speaker 2: that bullshit. Like, you know, it is what it is.
- 7:15Speaker 2: It really doesn't have anything to do with me. I
- 7:16Speaker 2: was obviously I was involved, and I was here through
- 7:19Speaker 2: it all. But we're talking years later. Man, this is
- 7:21Speaker 2: years later. But but I do know on the other end,
- 7:25Speaker 2: and I did say to some of you that DM
- 7:26Speaker 2: me on this, I know that a lot of people
- 7:28Speaker 2: were left in the dark, the listeners, So it's easy
- 7:31Speaker 2: for me to say I don't care because I know
- 7:32Speaker 2: the whole story. But there's so many people everybody that
- 7:36Speaker 2: doesn't know the whole story and wants to and have
- 7:38Speaker 2: sat in the dark for all the all this time.
- 7:41Speaker 2: So yeah, it's your your chance to hear what went
- 7:43Speaker 2: on the raw truth. So go check it out for sure.
- 7:47Speaker 2: And uh, yeah, you can let me know how it
- 7:49Speaker 2: is if you want to send a talk Well not,
- 7:50Speaker 2: I'm not going to play a talk back, but you
- 7:52Speaker 2: can shoot me a DM if you will. So, Uh,
- 7:54Speaker 2: Bill's got his food show coming up. I tried to
- 7:56Speaker 2: get him on this podcast like when he joins, but
- 8:00Speaker 2: he's in there doing his hair in the office and
- 8:03Speaker 2: I walked in and asked them, Hey, you want to
- 8:04Speaker 2: come on the podcast and he said, no, I can't.
- 8:06Speaker 2: I'm getting ready for my food show. And I said
- 8:08Speaker 2: to him, but your food show is radio, it's not
- 8:12Speaker 2: on TV. But you're doing your hair. Makes no sense
- 8:15Speaker 2: And he just looked at me while he was brushing
- 8:17Speaker 2: his hairs. So but I'll blame him. Man, he needs
- 8:20Speaker 2: he deserves a break. He just did a four five
- 8:22Speaker 2: hour radios four hour radio show. He's been here since
- 8:25Speaker 2: four am, so he can take a break. It's all good.
- 8:29Speaker 1: Yeah, that's it.
- 8:30Speaker 2: I'm going to go to class today at Drive. I
- 8:32Speaker 2: got a class at twelve. It's a lift class, a
- 8:35Speaker 2: little chest, a little back, so that should be fun.
- 8:38Speaker 2: I did post a picture on my Instagram, quite thirsty,
- 8:42Speaker 2: thirsty pick.
- 8:45Speaker 1: Of my legs in the sauna.
- 8:47Speaker 2: I wanted to show off the sauna, so I was
- 8:48Speaker 2: in there and I took the picture and then my
- 8:52Speaker 2: legs look super veiny. And I know, if you're not
- 8:56Speaker 2: into that stuff, it looks very weird and very gross,
- 9:01Speaker 2: you know. But to someone like me or somebody that
- 9:04Speaker 2: works out, it's into like muscle and legs and all that.
- 9:07Speaker 2: Like I did get DMS and people were like, oh
- 9:08Speaker 2: my god, that's great. But I've said it before and
- 9:11Speaker 2: I'll say it again.
- 9:12Speaker 1: Okay.
- 9:12Speaker 2: As weird as it is, my leg development is one
- 9:16Speaker 2: of my proudest things in my life.
- 9:18Speaker 1: So sometimes I like.
- 9:19Speaker 2: To show it off. That's all. It's what I like
- 9:21Speaker 2: to do. It's very hard to build muscle and legs.
- 9:24Speaker 2: Most people skip their legs because it hurts. It's painful.
- 9:28Speaker 2: It's tough mentally, not just physically, there is a lot
- 9:31Speaker 2: of pain physically but also mentally. To show up and
- 9:34Speaker 2: push your legs to that limit. That's why people only
- 9:36Speaker 2: do upper body. Upper body day every day. They do
- 9:39Speaker 2: arms and chest and biceps, because you know, you can
- 9:42Speaker 2: wear pants and no shirt and you look fine, or
- 9:46Speaker 2: you can wear longer shorts and taller socks. You know,
- 9:51Speaker 2: so I get proud of them and I show it off.
- 9:54Speaker 2: So I just want to say, I know it's weird.
- 9:57Speaker 2: I don't live in a fantasy land or like I'm
- 10:00Speaker 2: gonna show my legs off. Oh my god. Everyone is
- 10:02Speaker 2: just gonna be like wow, justin amazing quods. I know
- 10:06Speaker 2: that's not how it is. I know the vast majority
- 10:09Speaker 2: of people are like, what the fuck is this?
- 10:12Speaker 1: You know, I'll never forget.
- 10:13Speaker 2: When Jay Cutler, the bodybuilder came in, I booked them
- 10:16Speaker 2: because I used to say it to Maddie back in
- 10:19Speaker 2: the day. I'd say, I get one selfish booking a year,
- 10:23Speaker 2: and he was like, what do you mean, I go
- 10:26Speaker 2: one booking where I don't have to run it by you.
- 10:28Speaker 2: I'm just gonna book them, and I'm only doing it
- 10:31Speaker 2: for myself because I want them on the show and
- 10:33Speaker 2: I want you to interview them. And he said one
- 10:36Speaker 2: a year, fine, I want to ask any questions. So
- 10:38Speaker 2: one year it was Jay Cutler, the bodybuilder. He you know,
- 10:41Speaker 2: he's a couple of shows here in Boston a couple
- 10:44Speaker 2: times a year, so he came in. Obviously, Jay's retired now,
- 10:47Speaker 2: but he's you know, was mister Olympia. He's still wicked jacked.
- 10:51Speaker 2: And I remember Matt. The first question he asked him
- 10:53Speaker 2: was the girls like it? Like the girls like the
- 10:57Speaker 2: big muscles and the you know, gorilla look, And Jay goes, Nope,
- 11:02Speaker 2: absolutely not. He goes, the vast majority of them I
- 11:05Speaker 2: think it's creepy and weird and are actually.
- 11:08Speaker 1: Scared of me.
- 11:09Speaker 2: And I was like, wow, that's crazy, crazy, crazy. So
- 11:13Speaker 2: you know, it's not lost on me that it looks weird.
- 11:15Speaker 2: So anyway, that's it for the after show today Tomorrow's Friday.
- 11:19Speaker 2: I'm I'm gonna I can't promise they'll be an after show.
- 11:23Speaker 2: I'm very busy wrapping things up, but I'm almost positive
- 11:26Speaker 2: I'll jump on and say goodbye, because you know, we'll
- 11:29Speaker 2: be off for a week. But if by chance, I
- 11:31Speaker 2: don't have a great week, and I'll have the full
- 11:34Speaker 2: recap of everything about vacation and the check in on
- 11:39Speaker 2: the after show and I get back, but i'll say
- 11:41Speaker 2: hi bye tomorrow.
